上海豫园老字号金店里，王老伯盯着计算器上跳动的数字犹豫了半天。 店员告诉他，一个30克的金镯子现在要价超过3万元，而去年此时，同样的首饰还不 到2万4。 但最后王老伯还是掏了钱包，理由是"老伴喜欢，涨高没事"。 就在同一天，现货黄金价格突破了每盎司4000美元大关。 这家金店的负责人发现一个有趣现象，当首饰金价突破1000元人民币每克后，客户买金出现了"两个极端"几克的小首饰和30克以上的大件，销量最好。 算 上投资金条，这家店在国庆假期前六天的销售总额同比增长了超过30%。 黄金这东西真是让人看不懂。 桥水基金创始人达利奥周二刚说黄金"无疑"比美元更安全，而对冲基金Citadel创始人肯·格里芬也认为金价上涨反映了市场对 美元的深层焦虑。 但问题是，黄金本身不产生利息，过去这是它的一大弊端。 交易员们目前普遍预期美联储本月将降息25个基点。 降息预期通常会提振黄金等非生息资产的吸引力，因为持有黄金的机会成本会随之下降。 随着美元开 始降息，黄金作为无息资产的"机会成本"大幅降低。 法国总理勒科尔尼向总统马克龙递交辞呈，他上任不足30天。 他的辞职阻碍了法国控制欧元区最大规模财政赤字的努力。 美国政府停摆已经 ...

现货黄金历史性地突破每盎司4000美元大关，这轮强劲涨势的背后，是美国政府停摆、科技股回调与全球政治不确定性共同作用的结果。 10月8日亚太时段，现货黄金涨至4000美元整数位心理关口，创历史新高。 叠加法国的政治危机和日本的领导层变动，全球范围内的风险厌恶情绪迅速升温，进一步强化了黄金作为终极避风港的地位。今年以来，黄金价格已飙升超过 50%。 投资者在全球经济与地缘政治风险加剧的背景下，正以前所未有的热情涌入黄金市场寻求庇护。 与此同时，市场对科技股的狂热情绪开始出现裂痕。隔夜关于甲骨文公司云业务利润率的报告，引发了投资者对人工智能驱动的涨势是否已达"过度繁荣"水平 的警惕。 （黄金今年以来涨超50%） 正如对冲基金桥水创始人Ray Dalio周二表示，黄金"无疑"是比美元更安全的避风港，其言论呼应了Citadel创始人Ken Griffin的观点，即金价上涨反映了市场对 美元的深层焦虑。 美国政府停摆加剧美联储政策不确定性 黄金近期涨势的最直接催化剂是已进入第二周的美国政府停摆事件。 美国政府部分业务的暂停导致关键经济数据延迟发布，这为美联储的利率决策路径蒙上了浓厚阴影。 在缺乏明确经济指标的情况下，市 ...

Core Viewpoint - The article questions the rationale provided by Federal Reserve Governor Stephen Miran for advocating significant interest rate cuts, suggesting that if his views are accepted, it would imply that the Federal Reserve, investors, and independent economists are all incorrect [2]. Group 1: Miran's Arguments - Miran supports a reduction of interest rates from the current 4%-4.25% range to approximately 2.5%, citing the impact of Trump's policy changes, including reduced immigration, lower government borrowing, and deregulation, which he believes should lead to lower long-term rates [2][3]. - He estimates that the "neutral real long-term interest rate" has decreased by over 1 percentage point due to these policy changes, predicting a potential 10% increase in the price of 10-year TIPS if yields drop to his estimated levels [3]. Group 2: Market Implications - If Miran's assumptions hold, significant adjustments in market pricing would be necessary, leading to a weaker dollar and favorable conditions for the stock market, despite concerns about high stock prices [3]. - The combination of lower borrowing costs and a weaker dollar is expected to benefit the stock market, suggesting that it could rise even further if Miran's views are validated [3]. Group 3: Counterarguments and Economic Context - The article highlights potential downsides to Miran's proposed policy changes, such as labor shortages and rising wages due to immigration restrictions, which could increase inflation [4][5]. - It also points out that the effectiveness of deregulation is unpredictable and that Miran's reliance on the Taylor Rule may not fully account for current economic conditions, as other metrics suggest a higher recommended interest rate range [5]. - Current economic indicators, including a projected GDP growth rate exceeding 3% for Q3 and strong market performance, challenge the necessity for further rate cuts, indicating that the economic landscape is more robust than Miran suggests [6][7].

Group 1 - The current economic environment is characterized by conflicting views: one advocating for more stimulus measures and the other indicating a strong but mature economic cycle [1] - Private sector spending is growing at the fastest rate in 20 years, suggesting that additional stimulus may not be necessary [2] - High inflation rates are stabilizing at a 30-year high, impacting the perception of nominal growth [2] Group 2 - The rapid investment in artificial intelligence (AI) could enhance productivity and extend the economic cycle, although there are risks of misallocation of funds [3] - Fiscal and monetary policies are not overly tight, with significant fiscal easing being implemented since 2010 [3] - Tariffs are causing macroeconomic fluctuations, but high nominal growth may continue to benefit risk assets [4] Group 3 - Inflation-driven growth may lead to rising interest rates, particularly if governments continue to accumulate deficits without addressing debt through high inflation [4] - The bond market may eventually require higher risk compensation for fiscal policies, potentially steepening the yield curve [4] - Investors should prepare for a shift from the current economic environment by diversifying portfolios and ensuring flexibility to capture investment opportunities [4]

Group 1: Macroeconomic Themes - De-globalization, monetary policy divergence, and debt sustainability are the three dominant themes in the global macroeconomic landscape [6][8]. - Concerns over tariffs and trade tensions have highlighted the trend of de-globalization, with initial fears easing as the year progressed [6][8]. - The debt-to-GDP ratio in the US and UK has surpassed 100%, raising concerns about government debt sustainability and leading to a steeper yield curve [6][8]. Group 2: Market Performance - After a sharp sell-off in the first quarter due to tariff announcements, the stock market experienced a V-shaped recovery, with the S&P 500 showing strong earnings performance [8][10]. - Global market earnings revisions appear to have bottomed out, indicating a potential turning point as earnings expectations remain resilient [10]. - The retail sector saw a decline in earnings growth, with a projected -1.7% in the second quarter, marking the first negative growth since the pandemic [14]. Group 3: Real Estate and Mortgage-Backed Securities - The institutional residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) market showed resilience due to stable new issuance and improving market sentiment [16]. - Housing activity has slightly rebounded, supported by increased inventory and builder incentives, helping to offset affordability pressures [16]. - The outlook for commercial real estate (CRE) and commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) issuance is expected to improve, with refinancing volumes anticipated to rise due to expected Fed rate cuts [8][19]. Group 4: Credit Market Outlook - Expectations of Fed rate cuts later in the year are providing new momentum for the collateralized loan obligation (CLO) market, with revised forecasts for refinancing and reset issuance [19]. - The overall credit fundamentals for CLOs are expected to remain stable, with a slowdown in rating downgrades anticipated by year-end [19]. - The projected issuance for BSL new AAA and BB rated bonds is expected to narrow to 125 basis points and 500 basis points, respectively, by year-end [19].
